Is evil rooted in being selfish?
Think about it, most crimes are committed from peoples own selfish thoughts, selfish needs, and selfish feelings
Even if it is valid its still selfish
Would a selfless person still steal what they need to survive form someone?
No that would be a selfish act.
That would put their own desires before others.
So, are any crimes justified ?
Is it okay to be selfish at times?
Is there any self-love in being selfish?
Do people always take what they wish they had because they don’t love themselves, or they don't love their life?
Always wishing to have other people's lives is selfish
But what would the world be without being selfish?
There would be no greed
No fear of being mistreated
Perhaps even fewer crimes
I can't fully say there would be more love, because the absence of selfishness does not necessarily mean the presence of selflessness
But we will be content with what we have and our desire to want more will lessen
We would also Care less about what others think of us or what we think about ourselves
What would the world be with selflessness?
More love and more friendliness
More givers than receivers
But do people who are so selfless ever accept gifts from others or would that also be a selfish act?
There always have to be a balance
Too much of anything is not good
So be selfless when being selfish is leading towards being evil
And be selfish when being selfless is leading you away from your rewards
